Investment Objective: Templeton Emerging Markets Smaller Companies Fund A(acc)EUR-H1 |
The Fund’s investment objective is long-term capital appreciation, which it seeks to achieve through a policy of investing primarily in equity securities as well as depository receipts of (i) small cap companies registered in the emerging markets, (ii) small cap companies which perform a substantial part of their business in emerging markets, and (iii) small cap holding companies which hold a substantial part of their participations in companies referred to in (i). For the purpose of the Fund’s investment objective, emerging market small cap companies are normally those having a market capitalisation at the time of initial purchase within the range of the market capitalisations of companies included in the MSCI Emerging Markets Small Cap Index (Index). Once a security qualifies for initial purchase, it continues to qualify for additional purchases as long as it is held by the Fund. |
